On the whole, I like the Vegh recordings as well as any I've heard.
However, my recordings are the Talich, because the Vegh were not on CD at
the time I bought them.  And the Talich is ALMOST the equal.  I gave my
Berg sets to my son, who was previously the recipient of my Budapest LPs.

I have a sentimental liking for the Budapest, but the Berg did nothing for
me.
